He understood what I wanted in the dance and choreographed the perfect dance. My son lives in Seattle WA and Jake along with the whole AMDS team (Tony and Karina) gave my son a zoom lesson so he would be up to speed on the dance since we couldn't practice locally. I can't express how grateful I am for their time and thoughtfulness. Along with my mother/son dance, Jake taught me beginning salsa and other latin dances. There are weekly fun and instructive group lessons and Friday night dance parties! Thanks so much Jake, Tony and Karina. Can't wait to take more lessons!

After becoming a widow in March, I was searching for something to help fill my time. I tried…read moresummer softball, which wasn't for me, so I asked myself, "What do I enjoy?" After careful consideration of that question, I found the answer was dancing. I had never been given any formal instruction, so I researched dance studios in my area that provide beginner classes. Little did I know when I picked up the phone to call Arthur Murray of Cary, that I would find my sanctuary. The Arthur Murray of Cary Team is remarkable. They devised a lesson plan that helps me to reach the dance goals that I have set for myself, and since I am new at this, I need lots of help! As my instructor, Jake is not only a skillful dancer, but gifted at making people feel comfortable. Karina, also an instructor, possesses a quiet grace that most women aspire to attain in dance. Tony and Julie, the owners of Arthur Murray of Cary bring decades of combined experience, with both dancing and instructing. They are both enthusiastically involved in the development of their students and instructors. But most important of all, when you walk in the door of Arthur Murray of Cary, you become a part of something much bigger than just a dance studio, you become a part of their family. And that is priceless.

All that to say I was super intimidated to take the plunge now, in my late 30s. I started with a Saturday afternoon line dancing workshop. I was immediately put at ease by the friendliness and the diversity of ages, sizes, and shapes of people that I found taking the class with me. After my wonderful experience at the workshop, I signed up for beginning modern jazz. Tracey Durbin is an amazing teacher! I was up-front with her about my lack of experience and nervousness. She put me at ease by reminding me that everyone is here to have fun, period. I have now signed up for my second session and I have no plans to stop!

When I graduated, it was hard to find a dance studio to take lessons. Ninth Street Dances offers classes in a variety of styles, techniques, and flavors. You can take a dance technique class or a movement/fitness class. I've taken an eight-week hour-long modern and contemporary. I've also taken the dancehall workshop (one three-hour class) which was high-energy and a lot of fun. Most of the adult classes were at night, which was great to attend after work. (This was before COVID-19, of course.) Now classes are virtual. I recently signed up for a virtual mediation class that will take place for four weeks during my lunch break -- perfect while I'm working from home. Other classes offered -- 90's cardio funk, tap, ballet, bhangra, twerk, hip hop, afrobeat and so many more! Here's the link to the class schedule: https://ninthstreetdance.com/classes/

Suffice it to say, today was an amazing day. I've never loved myself more. The women at TML Turn Me Loose Fitness are so amazing and I will continue to take classes there until I drop lol.
